Rustler compatibility depends on whether the truck is brushed, VXL, 2WD or 4X4. The Rustler 4X4 VXL manual permits 6- or 7-cell NiMH, or 2S/3S LiPo packs with the Traxxas High-Current connector; a 3S pack is not for a brushed model. Check the battery tray dimensions, connector and charger before buying.
